love the control dial it's a twp speed and has 2 cycles, regular and delicate. it has the time fill and you can set the dial for more or less fill time.

Hey Pete, glad your Rollermatic arrived safely. It's a good looking washer, had several neighbors who had this style at one time. There was a Frigidaire dealer a few blocks away. Tom | ||

Even without Ben stating what year the L series was, I was going to say 1967 anyway b3ecause pf the DPC ensignia on the panl. That was the first year for the Durable Press Care ensignia. And a nice machine in nice shape. New Orleans huh? Hmm. Because of the glare, what is the water temp combo above the warm wash/cold rinse--hot wash cold rinse or cold wash cold rinse? I think a friend of mine in jr. High School had this same washer and matching gas dryer.

Oh my Lord!!!
That thing is almost like Mother's old one. I have not set my eyes on anything like this in nearly 20 years! Mother's was Avacado Green, and the planel was black, I think it was the Deluxe model, it was a single speed. God I loved it, we were so stupid for getting rid of it, it only had a bad timer. It's interesting to note that my '67 Rapidry has this same lid with no instructions printed on it, mine has the rubber seal that goes around the rim, keeps things quiet at higher rpm's. Pete, I think you're probably the Rollermatic King of this site now, I can only think of one person who may have more of them than you do. | ||

thanks walt 
just got a new phone thru time warner, bundled with my internet and actually got cable put in too (although they can't get it to work yet). will call you soon, have unlimited long distance. wanted to tell you i tore apart the 2nd rollermatic you gave me last nite! the one you said is identical to the one in this thread. tub came out easily, no hassle! bellows both look good as new! water seal looks a tad worn but i'm gonna go with it for now, even tho i just bought 5 water seals from a friend here. inner and outer tubs are in great shape! much better than the custom imperial! gonna paint outer tub this week however. this one has no top so i'm gonna go with it topless! the top lid of the outer water container is there and when painted it will look great! i found a timer for it from a friend on the web if i want it. i might do this one manual tho, using switches, not sure yet. got lots of ideas for it, it will look cute when done! outer cabinet is rusted more than i wanna look at so i'm gonna paint it something wild! this one is from 1967 so i'll so i'll do it up "mod"! will post pics soon. | ||

this is most probably the last rollermatic for me...
Uh Huh... Thats like Gordon saying "Well, that's enough Kenmores for me" or Geoff saying "Another wringer? No, I couldn't possibly..." LOL!!! You'll find another one someday that will catch your eye... That is a snazzy washer. I can't wait to see it cleaned up and washing. Some video, perhaps? Never having seen one in the real, how different is the mechanism from the 1-18 model like I have? RCD | ||
